I still love wikipedia, because it tells us this:
* The Pixar film Monsters Inc.(2001) features scenes in a restaurant called Harryhausen's.
* Both the Tim Burton stop-motion film Corpse Bride and the Nick Park stop-motion film Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit featured a piano made by a piano maker called Harryhausen.

but obviously I should have googled before posting...
Interesting that both Curse of the Wererabbit and Corpse Bride should feature
the same homage - I noticed several other overlaps between the 2 films
(not least in the look of the bad guy). I'll probably now find both flicks share
the same artistic director or something.
